Preemie 3

You hold my summer in your hands.

Wait a minute... do pumpkins have hands? Anyway, yesterday morning I thought she was fading like the others. Then last night I thought she looked better. I'm going to run out of chances before too long.

There is a Premie 4 on a side vine, and Premie 5 even further out than Premie 3. But if Preemie 3 can't make it, I guess something is wrong that isn't going to get better.

I wonder if there's time to start over? I'll wait a week on Premie 5 before I do that. And the kid in this picture looks pretty healthy. I'll know her fate for sure tomorrow or Sunday.
